Here’s an iconic song that, in my opinion, is the epitome of the “California Rock” sound.
It was made famous in the 70s by the Eagles. You’ll find it contains smooth vocals, a story behind it, and some brilliant guitar playing.
When I hear it I think of cruising the coast with the windows down.
So grab your guitar and let’s dive into this Peaceful Easy Feeling guitar lesson!
Who wrote Peaceful Easy Feeling?
"Peaceful Easy Feeling" was written by Jack Tempchin an American musician and songwriter best known for his work with the Eagles. Born on February 7, 1947, in San Diego, California. Tempchin has had a prolific career, both as a solo artist and as a collaborator with some of the biggest names in rock and country music.
Tempchin wrote "Peaceful Easy Feeling" in 1969, inspired by a night he spent in a club in El Centro, California. According to Tempchin, the song was born out of his experiences with women and a sense of longing for a simple, tranquil love. He wrote the lyrics while sitting in the club, observing people and imagining a peaceful relationship.
Tempchin later played it for Glenn Frey, who was impressed and decided to bring it to the Eagles. Frey's relaxed, mellow delivery of the vocals perfectly matched the song's easygoing vibe, leading to it becoming one of the band's signature tracks.
"Peaceful Easy Feeling" was recorded in London at Olympic Studios and in Los Angeles at Island Studios, where the Eagles worked with producer Glyn Johns. The song features Glenn Frey on lead vocals and guitar, with Bernie Leadon on guitar, Randy Meisner on bass, and Don Henley on drums. The harmony vocals, a hallmark of the Eagles' sound, were crucial to the track's success.
I believe this is one of the easiest ways to play "Peaceful Easy Feeling" on guitar. But keep in mind you will need a capo, if you want to play it in the original key.
